A certain manufacturer has determined that the weekly demand and supply
functions for their product are given by the equations:
supply:
p=-2x² +80
demand: p = 15x+30
where z represents the quantity demanded in units of a thousand and p is the unit
price in dollars. Find the market equilibrium (equilibrium price and equilibrium
quantity).
Assume that demand for a commodity is represented by the equation P = 10 − .2Qd and supply by the equation P = 2 + .2Qs, where Qd and Qs are quantity demanded and quantity supplied, respectively, and P is price. Using the equilibrium condition Qs = Qd, solve the equations to determine equilibrium price. Now determine equilibrium quantity.
Please provide accurate and correct answers to both questions without explanation. Thank you for your assistance.

- THIS IS FOR MATHEMATICAL ECONOMIC : Question (2): The market for disposable cell phones: Q = 2300 – 16p and Q = 1850 + 14p. Find the equilibrium price and quantity. Suppose that a new technology has emerged that will enable firms to mass produce the cell phones at a reduced cost. Which curve will be affected and what will be the general outcome? Going back to question (b), if the new equilibrium price of a disposable cell phone is $11.25, how many disposable cell phones will be demanded by consumers? Derive the new function based on your analysis. Suppose that more consumers prefer the disposable cell phone over the smart phone because the disposable cell phone is more durable than the smart phone. This latest news comes after the fact that firms that manufacture disposable cell phones have the latest technology integrated into their production facilities. What will be the market effect?
